Xiao Ran had booked a private room before informing Na Zi. Even though Na Zi had immediately put down whatever she was doing and rushed over as soon as she received the message, it was still almost half an hour later.
Na Zi saw Xiao Ran leaning against a chair in the private room with his eyes closed after entering the room. She could not help but slow down her movements and gently closed the door before walking in.
Ever since she became a member of the Burning Legion, Na Zi was still the same Na Zi. Compared to the past, the burden on her shoulders had been shared too much. She also had more confidence and motivation. She was no longer as dispirited as before and was full of vitality. Her personality, at least when facing Xiao Ran, had also changed a lot.
After Na Zi closed the door, Xiao Ran opened his eyes and glanced at Na Zi who had already entered the room. He nodded gently and said, "You're here. Take a seat first."
Na Zi nodded with a puzzled expression. She did not understand why Xiao Ran had asked her to come to this place. After sitting opposite Xiao Ran, Na Zi asked, "Why did you ask me to come over in such a hurry?"
"There are some things I want to ask you." Xiao Ran nodded and said, "It's about the promotion of S-rank pilots."
Na Zi heard Xiao Ran's words and looked at the private room strangely. She was puzzled. This kind of thing could be asked in the territory. Why did he have to come to Prometheus to book a private room?
Xiao Ran noticed Na Zi's puzzled expression and only asked, "Did you receive the promotion authority when you were promoted to S-rank?"
Na Zi nodded. "Yes. In Prometheus, all participants, no matter what authority they had before, will be promoted to Brigadier General as long as they are promoted to S-rank."
Xiao Ran sighed softly and asked, "Then you should also know about the return authority?"
"Return?" Na Zi nodded and said strangely, "Yes, you called me here for the return authority?"
Xiao Ran said, "That's right. Tell me more about this authority."
"Won't you know if you use that authority once?" Na Zi's expression became even more strange. She said, "It means that after a complete mission cycle, you can return to your home once. After returning, you can bring back the technology you obtained in Prometheus. You can also personally choose people from your home and recommend them to Prometheus. If you don't have this authority, you can still recommend people, but you can't choose specific people."
"This privilege is meaningful to some people, but to others, it's meaningless. You can only stay for seven days at most, and you can't buy time to stay. It's just like how I didn't have anything to hold me back in my original home. After being promoted to S-Rank, I've only returned there once."
Xiao Ran's eyes widened as he listened to Na Zi's words. When Na Zi finished speaking, he stood up from his chair and asked in shock, "What did you just say?"
Xiao Ran's sudden action gave Na Zi a fright. She was even more puzzled as she asked, "This is just a complete mission cycle. I only have one chance to return temporarily. It's not useful to me. Why?"
"Temporary authority? Only temporary authority?" Xiao Ran's brows furrowed as he opened the detailed explanation behind the returning authority on the panel. His gaze kept shifting back and forth between Na Zi and the panel.
"It's only temporary authority." Na Zi nodded affirmatively. She continued, "But I feel that if the registration authority is upgraded further, perhaps this authority can become permanent. Or perhaps there will be even more functions. Although I don't know what Prometheus's goal is in nurturing us, but Prometheus wouldn't give up on the [S] rank pilots he's nurtured so easily."
Xiao Ran looked at the description of his authority and muttered to himself, "Temporary authority … only temporary authority? How is this possible? "
This time, Na Zi finally felt that something was not right. She frowned slightly and looked at Xiao Ran. "Could it be that your authority is different from ours?"
Xiao Ran nodded gently and sat down again. He said with a look of disbelief, "Are you sure that every S-rank pilot has the same Brigadier General authority?"
Na Zi nodded heavily. "Yes, I'm sure."
Xiao Ran was silent for a moment. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "But my authority is completely different from what you said."
Na Zi's puzzled expression suddenly turned into shock. "What!?"
"My return authority is permanent. Once used, I will not be able to return to this world again." Xiao Ran looked up at Na Zi and said, "But I can take everything that belongs to me and leave with it. But other than those related to the army, I'm not sure if I can take away the faction territory that belongs to me, or if I can obtain the right to enter and leave freely."
Na Zi heard Xiao Ran's words and sucked in a cold breath. "Permanently removed from Prometheus' authority?"
"Initially, I thought that Return was a privilege that every participant who was promoted to S-rank would obtain, so I wanted to look for you to understand the details of this privilege. At first, I felt that this topic was not particularly suitable to be discussed in the territory, so I asked you to come here and talk in private."
At this point, Xiao Ran's eyebrows were tightly knitted together. "But I didn't expect that our authority would be completely different."
Na Zi was also stunned. "How can this be? Should I contact the other S-rank pilots and see if they are in the same situation? "
But after saying this, Na Zi's expression became extremely complicated. She looked at Xiao Ran and asked hesitantly, "Then you … Then you're not going to leave, are you?"
"Leave?" Xiao Ran's gaze became a lot more vacant. If he could leave this world and take everything that belonged to him, of course he would want to leave this world. But if he really did leave, what would happen to the Burning Legion? What would happen to the people in the legion? What would happen to Bassac and Nalor?
Xiao Ran would not abandon the Burning Legion. He also could not abandon the Burning Legion. The Burning Legion was developed by him single-handedly. How could he bear to abandon it just like that? But he also wanted to return to his own world. Not the Earth in those missions, but the real Earth that belonged to him.
